    You know DSN1EL, Nate is correct. You don't know what you're talking about. You have no idea that although I was getting better fuel mileage that because I have a lower gear ratio on my Western Star I had great difficulty getting up hills - mainly through Swan Hills, AB.
    I would get passed consistently, and had to concentrate as I was constantly grabbing gears.
    I havent got the experience that Nate and Itsneversafe and others have, and I certainly try to learn as much as I can from others as being a truck driver is a never ending learning experience.
    I think its time you stopped insulting others especially about sexuality and stop pretending you know it all.

    I don't have much experience lol, but I do know 3:91's aren't too much. Boss actually just bought an 07 with a 600 cummins and 391. I drove it around today and thought the gear ratio was fine for loaded tridems.

    You really do come across like an expert in a field in which you have no special knowledge.

    It's owned by Al Dennis out of Leduc. I broke it in for him. The winch rig up alone was over 68 thousand.

    Very nice! I'm pretty jealous. I'm not a big fan of the rig up on the truck we just got. It's functional but I just don't like the side steps lol. It's on my fb pb.
